Analysis of a Smartphone-Based Architecture with Multiple Mobility Sensors for Fall Detection with Supervised Learning

Abstract: This paper describes a wearable Fall Detection System (FDS) based on a body-area network consisting of four nodes provided with inertial sensors and Bluetooth wireless interfaces. The signals captured by the nodes are sent to a smartphone which simultaneously acts as another sensing point. In contrast to many FDSs proposed by the literature (which only consider a single sensor), the multisensory nature of the prototype is utilized to investigate the impact of the number and the positions of the sensors on the … Show more

“…To resolve these concerns, a breakthrough distributed system with the development of machine learning algorithms on mobile devices has been proposed 19 . With the revolution of the mobile devices of sophisticated hardware and operating systems, a large number of fall detection systems based on the mobile devices have sprung up in recent years 10,20,21 .…”

“…This study was focused on young people without any impairments, but it is remarkable to say that the selection of subjects should be aligned to the goal of the system and the target population who will use it. From the related works described above 10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18 , we can observe that there are authors that use multimodal approaches focusing in obtaining robust fall detectors or focus on placement or performance of the classifier. Hence, they only address one or two of the design issues for fall detection.…”

“…In summary, we found multimodal fall detection related works 10,11,12 that compare the performance of different combinations of modalities. Some authors address the problem of finding the best placement of sensors 13,14,15 , or combinations of sensors 13 with several classifiers 13,15,16 with multiple sensors of the same modality and accelerometers. No work was found in literature that address placement, multimodal combinations and classifier benchmark at the same time.…”

“…Portable and wearable devices do not suffer from these limitations. In the latter category, two main approaches can be found: one is typically based on smartphones [9][10][11][12] and another on several kinds of wearable devices with specific hardware [13][14][15][16]. As fall detection devices, smartphones suffer from several limitations, which affect the overall performance [17].…”
